The Middle School elective program encourages our students to pursue interests and passions beyond the core curriculum. Students are required to take an elective each trimester. Students may choose to stay in one elective for the entirety of the school year, or choose to experience different electives over the course of the year.  Check out this video that Middle School students made to highlight some of their favorite classes:
